(CN.R10004). A
slow introduction gives
way to the chirpy theme
which is developed,
inverted, and accents
displaced across the bar
line to give a 3/2 feel
against the written
meter. Restlessness leads
to a tranquillo presented
by the flute and
clarinet, weaving a
flowing counterpoint
around the melody until
the original slow
introduction returns. A
triumphant recapitulation
of the main theme brings
this wonderful piece to
an end.
Originally
composed for Brass Band
in 1934 Comedy Overture
is, despite its name, a
serious piece of writing.
The term Overture does
not imply that there is
anything else to follow;
it is used in the 19th
century sense of Concert
Overture (like
Mendelssohn's Fingal's
Cave - in other words, a
miniature Tone Poem). The
1930's was a period of
Ireland's mature writing
- yielding the Piano
Concerto (1930), the
Legend for piano and
orchestra (1933), and the
choral work These Things
Shall Be (1936-1937). We
are fortunate therefore
to have both Comedy
Overture and A Downland
Suite (1932) written for
band medium at this time.
As with Maritime Overture
(written in 1944 for
military band) Ireland
approaches his material
symphonically. The
opening three notes state
immediately the two
seminal intervals of a
semitone and a third.
These are brooding and
dark in Bb minor. It is
these intervals which
make up much of the
thematic content of
Comedy, sometimes
appearing in inverted
form, and sometimes in
major forms as well. The
concept that some musical
intervals are consonant ,
some dissonant, and some
perfect is perhaps useful
in understanding the
nature of the tension and
resolution of this work.
The third is inherently
unstable, and by bar 4,
the interval is expanded
to a fourth - with an
ascending sem-quaver
triplet - and then
expanded to a fifth. The
instability of the third
pushes it towards a
perfect resolution in the
fourth or the fifth. The
slow introduction is
built entirely around
these intervals in Bb
minor and leads through
an oboe cadenza, to an
Allegro moderato
brillante in Bb major.
Once again, the semi-tone
(inverted) and a third
(major) comprise the
main, chirpy,
theme-inspired by a
London bus-conductor's
cry of Piccadilly. (Much
of the material in Comedy
was re-conceived by
Ireland for orchestra and
published two years later
under the title A London
Overture.) The expansion
of the interval of a
third through a fourth,
fifth, sixth, and seventh
now takes place quickly
before our very ears at
the outset of this
quicker section.
Immediately the theme is
developed, inverted, and
accents displaced across
the bar line to give a
3/2 feel against the
written meter. But this
restlessness leads to a
tranquillo built around
an arpeggio figure and
presented by flute and
clarinet. Ireland weaves
his flowing counterpoint
around this melody until
the original slow
introduction returns
leading to a stretto
effect as the rising bass
motifs become more
urgent, requesting a
resolution of the tension
of that original semitone
and minor third. Yet
resolution is withheld at
this point as the music
becomes almost becalmed
in a further, unrelated
tranquillo section marked
pianissimo. It is almost
as if another side of
Ireland's nature is
briefly allowed to shine
through the stern
counterpoint and
disciplined structure.
This leads to virtually a
full recapitulation of
the chirpy brilliante,
with small additional
touches of counterpoint,
followed by the first
tranquillo section-this
time in the tonic of Bb
major. But the
instability of the third
re-asserts itself, this
time demanding a
resolution. And a
triumphant resolution it
receives, for it finally
becomes fully fledged and
reiterates the octave in
a closing vivace. The
opening tension has at
last resolved itself into
the most perfect interval
of all. $130.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 3 to 4 weeks | | |

Inspired by
Saint-Saens' Carnival of
the Animals, this work
depicts many of the
insects we know and love
using interesting effects
like tapping small
sticks. Bands may like to
perform the Carnival as a
complete suite or to play
individual movements on
their
own.
Carnival of
the Insects was
commissioned by the
National School Band
Association and was first
performed at the Scottish
Festival organized by
NSBA and Brian Duguid of
West Lothian Arts on May
12, 2001. The music
letters SBA were used to
form the basis of the
melodies to personalize
the piece for the
Association. (S can be
Eb, B can be Bb using
European note names.) The
Carnival is inspired by
Saint Saens Carnival of
the Animals and derives a
lot of the rhythmic
structures from it. March
of the Ants - The Thin
Black Line The composer
was reminded of a French
holiday when a line of
ants would march every
night from the gate of
the house, past the pool
and up into the garden.
Crickets and stick
insects Here the composer
remembered balmy
Mediterranean nights and
the sound of crickets. An
interesting effect is to
have small groups of
players around the
performance venue
randomly tapping small
sticks throughout this
movement. Insectivores
These are the creatures
which eat insects and the
music has a dramatic
scary feel to it with a
chase in the middle.
Metamorphosis This is
where the caterpillar
changes into a butterfly.
The Euphonium melody will
strike the listener as
being very similar to The
Elephant. The Bug Parade
This is a grand finales
where we can imagine many
of the insects in a
Disney-like parade. Bands
may like to perform the
Carnival as a complete
suite or to play
individual movements on
their own. $12.50 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 3 to 4 weeks | | |

'LIST
ENING EARTH' is a
symphonic drama, a one-
movement composition in
four parts based on the
work by two writers,
Joseph Addison
(1672-1719) and W.H.Auden
(1907-1973). Joseph
Addison is not
particularly well known;
he was English, a
classical scholar,
essayist, poet and
politician, but one of
his hymns was used by
Benjamin Britten. in his
setting of a Thomas
Tallis canon. The hymn
is singularly beautiful
and being a composer
always inspired by
extramusical stimuli such
as poems, nature,
paintings, I was
immediately convinced
when I carne across the
Addison hymn, that here
was exactly what I wanted
to use as my major source
of inspiration for this
piece, commissioned by
and written for The
Berlin Philharmonic.
I don't refer to the
hymn in its entirety, but
have chosen the following
3 excerpts, all acting as
mottos for the first
three sections of the
piece, thus turning the
piece into a
straightforward tonepoem
in the classical. $131.95 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 2 to 3 weeks | | |

Warlike, then
noble, Now is the Day is
based on the great figure
in Scottish history -
William Wallace, often
called Braveheart.
Opening with the
woodwinds playing drums
along with the percussion
section against brass
fanfares, this piece will
create an air of
excitement. An alto
saxophone solo provides a
brief moment of solace
between the battle
scenes.
This work
is based on a great

Wallace, often called

Scots wha hae wi' Wallace
bled, which is Scotland's
unofficial national
anthem contains the line
Now is the day and how is
the hour, and this is the
source of the title. The
opening section is
warlike in sound with
woodwinds playing
tambours of some sort -
tom-toms, tambours, even
old drum skins will make
the kind of noise
required to simulate a
battle. Noisy brass
fanfares are melodic
fragments of Scots wha
hae melody. Eventually,
woodwinds join in and the
music slows down to an
alto saxophone solo,
again based on fragments
of Scots wha hae. The
battle tempo resumes and
percussion then lead the
band noisily into an
eventual full statement
of the theme creating a
noble sound against the
continuing drum patterns,
leading to a triumphant
ending. $45.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 3 to 4 weeks | | |

Cast your self
into a storm at sea with
this fantastic piece from
John Ireland. Turbulent
rhythmic motives launch
the work to blend into a
more lyrical melody
contrasting the opening.
Don't be fooled though;
the first rhythmic motive
provides the underlay, a
reminder that the calm
surface of the sea is
only masking the swirling
water
underneath!
A
Maritime Overture was
written in 1944 and
published in 1946. This
edition was published in
1988. The score was
prepared from the
composer's full draft by
Norman Richardson, and
uses the same material as
Tritons - a Symphonic
Prelude for orchestra
dating from the early
1900s. The development of
the material however is
different in each piece.
The work is conceived in
F major - but it is 24
bars before Ireland
establishes this
tonality. Fortissimo
chords of B-flat major
open the work, and the
Overture hovers between G
minor and B-flat as a
restless rhythmic motif
is introduced. As soon as
F major is finally
established it is
contradicted as the music
fragments, but the key is
allowed a further 4 bars
to consolidate before
more lyrical interplay
leads to a second idea,
introduced by flutes and
oboes in C major. Marked
'espressivo e ben
cantando' this is a
complete contrast to the
opening, although the
first rhythmic motif
provides the underlay - a
reminder after the
opening storms that the
calm surface of the sea
is only masking the
swirling water
underneath. A Maritime
Overture has a freer
approach to form than say
the first movement of a
symphony might allow,
enabling Ireland to
introduce a totally new
central section marked
'poco meno mosso' in F
minor. A bold cornet (not
trumpet) heralds this new
idea, in a passage marked
'with freedom' and
perhaps for the only time
there is a true
tranquility in the
sextuplet accompaniment.
Thus the restlessness is
suspended, but not for
long, as the opening
storm returns and a
recapitulation allows the
F major theme and the
second theme - this time
in the sub-dominant
(B-flat) - to reassert
themselves. $115.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 3 to 4 weeks | | |

A short,
melting example of why
the music of Jules
Massenet was so respected
and admired in his native
France during his
lifetime. The Last Sleep
of the Virgin is from the
oratorio La Viege and was
originally for string
orchestra. This masterful
arrangement will provide
a delightful moment of
quiet beauty on your
program.
Nestling
within the pages of La
Viege, an Oratorio
written in 1880 but with
no evidence of a full
performance, is to be
found The Last Sleep of
the Virgin, a short
melting example of why
the music of Jules
Massenet (1842-1912) was
so highly respected and
admired in his native
France during his
lifetime. Massenet
composed more than 40
operas, including
Herodiade, Manon, Le Cid,
and Thais, and his
influence on French music
was monumental. The Last
Sleep of the Virgin was
originally scored for
string orchestra. This
arrangement for woodwind
and brass offers the
opportunity for this
gentle music to be heard
in a different hue,
whilst keeping its
inherent beauty for the
satisfaction of those
performing it and sharing
the experience as
listeners. $12.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 3 to 4 weeks | | |

Before the days
of photography, the great
state occasions were
captured in paintings and
tapestries. In this
Suite, the composer has
imagined the pomp and
splendor of the English
court at work and play,
capturing each mood in a
short
movement.
Stuart
Johnson has the fine
ability to capture moods
and scenes in music. He
was born in
Staffordshire, the county
for which he was Director
of Music until his
retirement in 1997. After
experience as a player in
brass bands, he served in
the band of the King's
Dragoon Guards before
training as a teacher and
working in schools.
Following a period as a
lecturer at
Northumberland College of
Education he became Music
Adviser to the
Metropolitan District of
Sandwell prior to his
appointment to
Staffordshire. He has
long experience as a
conductor, particularly
in the choral and band
fields and also wide
experience as an
adjudicator and examiner.
He has written
prolifically for bands
and orchestras and his
didactic publications are
used in many countries.
He has over eighty
published compositions
and arrangements, many of
which have been broadcast
on radio or television.
His commissioned works
include the cantata David
and Goliath which was
first performed at the
Royal Festival Hall,
Oregon Overture for wind
orchestra, Landscapes,
Sinfonietta No 2, Wessex
Dances and A Castle
Suite. Stuart Johnson has
recently completed
several commissions,
funded by National
Lottery grants, for bands
in Cumbria, the Isle of
Wight, and Staffordshire.
Requiem for Soprano,
Chorus and Orchestra, was
premiered successfully in
front of a capacity
audience in Lichfield
Cathedral in March 1997,
and received its first
London performance at St.
John's Smith Square in
March 1998. This
prestigious venue also
saw the first performance
of Songs and Sonnets for
unaccompanied mixed choir
in 2001. Stuart Johnson
has written extensively
for the theatre, his
music for the production
of Anna of the Five Towns
was used for both the
radio and television
adaptations His music
ranges in style from the
evocative and demanding
Sinfonietta for Wind
Orchestra, which has
received many
performances since its
premiere in the Royal
Festival Hall, including
a broadcast by the Band
of the Scots Guards, to
his ubiquitous Bandstand
Boogie which has set feet
tapping all over the
world. Apart from the
latter his most performed
work is probably Circus
Suite which was the
British Youth Band
Championship test piece
in 1980. Northumbrian
Suite and Landscapes have
also been used as
National Brass Band
Championship test pieces.
The Flint Knappers
commissioned as a test
piece for the 1998 East

selected as a test piece
for the 1999 Australian
Championships. Before the

CN.S11158 Composed by
Gordon Jacob. Band Music.
Score only. Duration
15:30. Published by G & M
Brand Music Publishers
(CN.S11158). A
powerful work. An opening
fanfare leads directly to
an Allegro risoluto,
which exudes
determination and
forthrightness. The
second movement follows
without a break and is a
continuous plaint in
which the melody seems
forever seeking
resolution like a
troubled soul searching
for respite. Only in the
closing bars does peace
seem to take over. The
final movement, marked
Allegro non troppo,
starts with a cheering
fanfare that leads to a
bright and breezy romp,
with a rustic feel about
it. When the fanfare
reappears we are suddenly
immersed in exaltations
of joy that really give a
feeling of optimism as we
proceed to the end of the
piece via a short
Coda.
With this
Symphony, Gordon Jacob
proclaims his absolute
mastery of idiom and
instrumentation with a
triumphant rejoicing.
Written in 1978 as a
commission from Arthur
Doyle (hence the AD in
the title, a typical
piece of Jacob wit), it
lay virtually unplayed
save for the efforts of
his Estate, Troy Peterson
and Geoffrey Brand and
CBDNA (College Band
Directors Association,
USA), who between them
ensured that it was
professionally recorded
in 1994 and published in
1995. There is little
point in indulging in
semantics as to whether
the piece is a Symphony.
It is Jacob's approach to
his tuneful, folk-based
material which is
symphonic: weighty in
exposition and
development, sonorous and
expressive in the slow
movement, with a
scherzo-like last
movement and a giocoso
coda. After a brilliant
opening fanfare, the
quick triple-meter first
theme (Allegro Risoluto)
is introduced on
clarinets, punctuated
with brass. It is soon
followed by a contrasting
melody for saxophone. In
all this material the
interval of a 4th is
prominent, and throughout
the work the 4th and 7th
are important. Perhaps it
is the frequent use of
the 7th which gives a
feeling of restlessness
without resolution which
pervades this movement as
the themes are dissected
and developed. The second
movement follows directly
after a horn bridge.
Still the melody outlines
the 7th and the ear is
not satisfied until the
full band (with organ),
comes to rest in Bb
major. This point of
repose and the magic
pianissimo which follows
shortly after when the
slow theme is re-stated,
are the apex of the
Symphony's construction.
Soon, however, we are
transported, via a
fanfare, into a
helter-skelter 9/8 romp:
rustic, English, and
almost vulgar, this theme
is thrown around the
group before exploding
into a boisterous 2/4
coda. $30.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 3 to 4 weeks | | |

Music of
enormous excitement and
expectation - marked very
animated - with brass
blazing a powerful call
against a tingling
triplet figure in
support. In Wagner's own
words - awaken the mute
lines of this score to
bright surrounding
life.
In a letter
addressed to My dear
Liszt, dated May 1852,
Richard Wagner writes: It
was you who awakened the
mute lines of this score
to bright surrounding
life. He was referring to
a performance of his
opera Lohengrin which
Franz Liszt conducted at
the Weirner Court Theatre
on August 28, 1850. The
letter was sent from
Zurich, since Wagner was
exiled from Germany at
this time. He had
completed his romantic
opera, Lohengrin, some
five years earlier but
doubted whether he would
ever hear it performed.
The action takes place in
Antwerp in the first half
of the 10th century. Elsa
and Lohengrin are to be
married and the 3rd Act
opens as they proceed in
great splendour,
accompanied by their
respective noblewomen and
noblemen, to the
cathedral. As a Prelude
to the curtain rising
Wagner unleashed music of
enormous excitement and
expectation - marked very
animated - with brass
blazing a powerful call
against a tingling
triplet figure in
support. In the opera
this magnificent Prelude
leads directly into the
Bridal Scene as Elsa and
Lohengrin make their way
solemnly to the betrothal
ceremony. Wagner achieves
this change of mood and
atmosphere most
skillfully. In arranging
the Prelude for concert
performance the challenge
was to provide an ending
which provides a
satisfactory climax to
Wagner's blaze of
instrumental colour,
without proceeding to the
solemn betrothal music.
This was resolved by
using the composer's own
mighty flourish to end
Act I of his opera. Now,
the gauntlet is thrown
down to all who perform
it to - in Wagner's own
words - awaken the mute

Music of
enormous excitement and
expectation - marked very
animated - with brass
blazing a powerful call
against a tingling
triplet figure in
support. In Wagner's own
words - awaken the mute
lines of this score to
bright surrounding
life.
In a letter
addressed to My dear
Liszt, dated May 1852,
Richard Wagner writes: It
was you who awakened the
mute lines of this score
to bright surrounding
life. He was referring to
a performance of his
opera Lohengrin which
Franz Liszt conducted at
the Weirner Court Theatre
on August 28, 1850. The
letter was sent from
Zurich, since Wagner was
exiled from Germany at
this time. He had
completed his romantic
opera, Lohengrin, some
five years earlier but
doubted whether he would
ever hear it performed.
The action takes place in
Antwerp in the first half
of the 10th century. Elsa
and Lohengrin are to be
married and the 3rd Act
opens as they proceed in
great splendour,
accompanied by their
respective noblewomen and
noblemen, to the
cathedral. As a Prelude
to the curtain rising
Wagner unleashed music of
enormous excitement and
expectation - marked very
animated - with brass
blazing a powerful call
against a tingling
triplet figure in
support. In the opera
this magnificent Prelude
leads directly into the
Bridal Scene as Elsa and
Lohengrin make their way
solemnly to the betrothal
ceremony. Wagner achieves
this change of mood and
atmosphere most
skillfully. In arranging
the Prelude for concert
performance the challenge
was to provide an ending
which provides a
satisfactory climax to
Wagner's blaze of
instrumental colour,
without proceeding to the
solemn betrothal music.
This was resolved by
using the composer's own
mighty flourish to end
Act I of his opera. Now,
the gauntlet is thrown
down to all who perform
it to - in Wagner's own
words - awaken the mute
lines of this score to
bright surrounding
life.. $12.50 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 3 to 4 weeks | | |

This
arrangement of the entire
March from A Moorside
Suite brings this
refreshing music to
concert bands of all
levels. It should be
played with full
appreciation of its
splendid sense of purpose
and direction, from the
bold fanfare-like
opening, based on a pair
uplifting leaps of the
interval of a fourth, in
which every instrument
takes part, right through
to the exaltant flourish
in the final bars marked
Allegro vivace. Truly, a
March to lift the
spirits!
Gustav
Holst (1874-1934) can
claim a distinction
shared with a relatively
small number of composers
in that his music is more
performed now than it was
during his lifetime. A
Moorside Suite, Holst's
only work for brass band,
is in three movements,
Scherzo; Nocturne; March;
and was written as the
set work for the National
Brass Band Championships
of Great Britain in 1928.
It has become recognized
as one of the truly great
original works for brass
band. This arrangement of
the entire March brings
this refreshing music to
concert bands of all
levels. It should be
played with full
appreciation of its
splendid sense of purpose
and direction, from the
bold fanfare-like
opening, based on a pair
uplifting leaps of the

Hear the sounds
of marching bands,
choirs, and the music of
Broadway in this exciting
concert march. Inspired
by an actual parade in
New York, Michael Brand
brings us this
spectacular original
march. Perfect in any
setting throughout the
year.
In June 1997
I was in New York and had
a free weekend. On Sunday
morning I was awoken
early by a great deal of
banging and saw that
barriers and roadblocks
had been erected
throughout Central Park.
Why? I soon heard the
answer: a great parade.
When the Americans put
together a parade they
really mean it! This one
lasted 3 hours and
brought the center of New
York to a standstill.
Bands, dancers and choirs
marched past in
celebration of the Jewish
faith. New York Parade is
completely original but
its starting point in my
imagination was a
marching band, a choir
and Broadway. The
marching band starts in
the distance, passes by
and as it moves away we
hear the next block of
performers singing,
almost chanting, a hymn
(called Jewish Song). The
groups suddenly turn into
Broadway, as a song from
an imaginary show
intervenes but then the
band and choir return in
counterpoint and all
three themes come
together. $10.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 3 to 4 weeks | | |
